Hosted by the Sidney North Sannich Yacht Club the 35th running of The Patos Island Race is in the books.

The Patos Island Long Course is a Van Isle360 qualifier and it is part of the Vancouver Island Race Series.

Congratulations to all those who managed to overcome the light air at Patos on the weekend of April 9th. From various first hand reports and looking at the tracker it was no doubt an exercise in patience and concentration.

They’re already halfway there. Ground zero is the Sint Maarten Yacht Club, a two-storey building right beside the lift bridge leading to Simpson Bay Lagoon. From the yacht club you can’t help but stare out at the fleet of megayachts moored and berthed in the lagoon.

Jeanneau Yachts 55

Throw away the box, this is some fresh thinking

Seemingly part sailboat and part spaceship, the new Jeanneau Yachts 55 just busted through the boundaries of traditional yacht design.

Paving the Way to Cleaner Boating – How a Commitment to Reducing our Environmental Impact is Inspiring Cleaner Boating in Ontario

By Dave Rozycki
